Who I've Done Work For:

Thanks for stopping by

I am Bam Leon

My multifaceted interests are a reflection of my muti hyphenate nature and entrepreneurial journey. When I am not designing, I am listening to or making music. I operate a creative studio known as Therum, where I channel my creativity into various projects. As an entrepreneur, I also helm Sidemoney, an apparel company, alongside my ventures in auto, real estate, and cannabis industries planned for this year. Inspired by the world around me, I’m shaped by my experiences, both wins and losses, acceptances and rejections. Through these experiences, I’ve honed a diverse skill set, taking pride in my talents and often taking on multifaceted roles. As a creative savant, I thrive outside the box, gravitating towards the experimental and daring. Ultimately, my aspiration is to share my knowledge and inspire others, perhaps one day teaching and mentoring to spread creativity and innovation.
